Yeah, I think it should be possible to use iommu_fwspec for this
purpose. The question is when to do it. =)

I actually looked into it recently, but then realised that for this to
work then due to code sharing I need to make use of iommu_fwspec on
both 32-bit and 64-bit ARM. So it requires rework of the existing
IPMMU for 32-bit ARM (including hairy legacy CONFIG_IOMMU_DMA=n code).
I was actually thinking of doing some rework of 32-bit ARM IPMMU code
anyway (I suspect iommu_device_* conversion caused breakage) and it
probably has to happen on top of current -next. I would also like to
start reducing burden of forward porting all these patches, and
stirring up the ground does not really help much there...

Cheers,
